NEW AFFILIATE E-CARDS ARE HERE!

Last month, we launched our new, completely overhauled E-Cards program for prospects. Now, we are excited to announce E-Cards for AFFILIATES!

Why would you need an E-Card for an affiliate? Lots of reasons!

* To welcome new PSAs, CSAs, and Second Home CSAs to your team
* To congratulate new EAs and Team Leaders in your group
* To recognize affiliates who've made it to the E365 finals
* To recognize affiliates who've qualified as Fast-Track Members
* To recognize affiliates who've won the Daily Grand
* To recognize birthdays and SFI anniversaries
* To let your affiliates know you're available and there to help them
* To just say "Keep up the great work!" to a hard-working member of your team

We've created a wide variety of cards--some colorful, some funny, some a bit silly, and some that are, yes, beautiful! You can use any of them you like, and they're completely free for all affiliates at this time.

PLUS...several of the cards get automatically personalized with your recipients' SFI account photo! Imagine the surprise and delight that some of these cards will bring.

We've also designed cards for some of those "special situations" all affiliates eventually encounter, such as when a PSA stops logging in at the Affiliate Center and/or becomes one of those "dreaded red-flagged affiliates" in your Genealogy that are about to be purged.

For more information, sample images, and instructions on using these new E-Cards, see this full announcement on the SFI News blog:

BIG DOG AUCTIONS

Check out the new Big Dog auctions! Designed especially for penny auction veterans, they have now replaced Pricebenders UNLIMITED auctions.

Some important details:

1. Big Dog auction wins do not count against your regular auction win limit. So if you've reached the win limit for our regular auctions, you can bid here. HOWEVER, you may win no more than ONE Big Dog auction per day.

2. To eliminate bidder intimidation, real names are not used in the bid log. Instead, each bidder is assigned a temporary alias (used only for that auction, no others). Once a Big Dog auction is completed, a complete list of all bidders--containing both their real names and their temporary alias--is provided. PLUS...All Big Dog auction winners will get a special Big Dog BADGE for their SFI homepage!

Anyone can participate in Big Dog auctions. See the auctions coded as "BD" on the Auction Schedule at:

THE DAILY GRAND...NOW GRANDER!

To keep pace with the substantial growth of SFI, we have now DOUBLED the number of Daily Grand winners. We'll are now drawing 200 total winners daily, representing $2,000 in prizes each day!

Entering the Daily Grand is fast and easy. Just collect a minimum of 10 VersaPoints each day and enter at the WIN IT tab on your homepage:

I LIKE STREAM POSTS

You can now "Like" STREAM posts at the Affiliate Center.

When you see a post you like, just click the like button and share a little love with the author! Let them know that you found value in what they wrote. They'll appreciate it.

And when YOU post to Stream, post good ones so that you, too, can collect likes. Why? Because we'll soon be introducing a new set of badges that you can earn for Forum likes and Stream likes.

TESTIMONIALS OF THE WEEK

Affiliates are weighing in on the new Affiliate Center search engine recently announced:

http://news.sfimg.com/index.php?entry=entry140121-113247

"[Previously at the Affiliate Center]...once I found the answer to my question, I would bookmark it on my browser so it did not take me as long to find it again. Now I do not need those bookmarks. The new search engine makes it easy and saves me time. You can even search for an answer while trying to help an affiliate or when writing to your team. Many, many thanks to all those who worked hard to make this new tool available."
--Jack Bonita

"Thanks a million Gery. Marvelous new addition."
--Tom Makhoul-Boustany

"Thanks Gery for this great improvement. I greatly appreciate it, and I'm sure all SFI affiliates do. Keep up the great work!!!"

"A nice improvement! Easy to spot, especially by new members. Also, the search suggestions encourage people to give it a try!"
--Boris Janevski
